Wishlist: special button "show me where I can find you"

I would like to ask, if it is possible to make a shortcut or a button in the context menu of a component which is already on the canvas, that shows me where I can find the component in the toolbars ahead. For example, if I make a right click on the component and select “show me where I can find you”, that Tab where it is, opens automatically or starts flashing for a second.

Well, at least I would find it very useful. I don’t know if it is possible or what the others think about that!?

Cheers,

Sebastian

hold down ctrl+shift a little blue icon will appear with an i for information. Select the component you want to locate and if it is on the toolbar it will be shown to you. Note that the grasshopper window should be as wide as possible to show all icons on the ribbon. If it is relegated to the drop down menus because of lack of space then it won't be able to show you where it is. 

Have you changed your profile picture? or are you a different Sebastian :)

Haha cool, I didn't know that, that's helpfull! :) No, I am Sebastian. Same person different profile picture! ;) Damn you got me I shouldn't ask to many bad questions, ... read the FAQ! ;)

Aaah ok, maybe one more:
How can I save Grasshopper definitions on my Page to access them directly like you did it on yours, the Grasshopper workshop Exercises on your Page at the top?

Thanks again for your help^^

cheers, Sebastian

Years ago it was obvious but I don't know if it's been removed as a feature in recent time. Some where there should be an edit button for the different panels on your home page.

I think there's a limit to total file sizes but as those are GHX's they are a lot bigger. I only put them there because I didn't have a memory stick when I did the course.

Ah I got it, thanks! It was at the end of my Page^^

Have a nice day!

Was it called "Text Panel"? for future reference.

Also as Frenchman I can congratulate you on Groupama just crossing the finish line into Lorient to win Leg 8 of the Volvo Ocean Race and probably sealing their overall victory of the race with 2 in-ports and 1 Leg to go.

No I am not a Frenchman! Actually I am German, studying in Vienna, but at the moment I am doing my Erasmus year in Paris! ;) it is a bit complicated^^
Yeah there is a little party going on at the Groupama HQ here in Paris! ;)

So sorry about the nationality slip. I suppose you would be rooting for Puma then :)

0.9 will show dropdowns too. You wouldn't believe how difficult that was to implement....
